as the obama care plans have gone live, some people have been notified that they can't keep their plans after all. here's why. most of the time it's because the plans they have don't meet the minimum standards of the affordable care act. that law requires everyone gets mental health care, maternity care and medication coverage. and out-of-pocket costs are capped at 6,350s $6,350 a year. now, with a few exceptions, the plans that don't meet that minimum will be gone. right? so unless you meet all three of those categories, your plan will not be offered. and the new plans offered that follow obama care requirements, they're more expensive often because they have to cover these extra items. now, the data mostly anecdotal right now. but for example, our elizabeth cohen spoke to a 34-year-old man who buys his own insurance. he's now paying $173 a month with a $5,000 deductible. his new plan would cost $244 a month with a deductible of more than $6,000. that costs more. but his old plan didn't cover everything. it didn't cover maternity care, brand-name drugs, mental health care and routines.

president obama said over and over again if you like your health care plan, you can keep it. why can't you keep it if you like it? if you want to subsidize more people, sick people, fine, that's a traditional public policy debate but preventing people from having the health insurance they want, that seems odd. >> nick, go ahead. >> let me push back at that a little bit. you know, there's no question that this is complicated and there are going to be mistakes that go beyond the website itself. but the same was true of medicare when it was launched. same was true of medicare part d, the drug benefit. at the end of the day, what we have and what we have had is a disaster. according to the world health organization, our health system ranks 38th globally, even though we spend more than any other country. and so there's no question that there are going to be problems and difficulties as we move ahead. but we're moving up from an extraordinarily -- a system that does an extraordinarily poor job providing efficient health care to americans. >> let me move on to another subject i want

>> yeah, i think there's two issues we have to keep in mind. the first issue is to remember that we're comparing the world after obama care to the world before. it's not like obama care's chasing insurers out. these are just markets that didn't have many insurers to choose from before and there hasn't been a lot of entry in recent times since the law has passed. but the second thing to keep in mind is the law is brand new. in massachusetts, after a law had been in place for two years, we had a major new entrant that really shook up the insurance market. you don't need a whole lot of new entrants to shake up a market. you don't need 16 choices. you don't need 12 choices. it's nice to have that many but having one or two new entrants which will happen over time, it did in massachusetts, can really shake up the market with lower prices. >> you spent a lot of time on health care and working on obama care. is there any real danger that obama care is actually in trouble of eventually collapsing? >> no, not really. what we're seeing now is website dif
